Cyber security threats are increasing in number, persistence, and sophistication.
Organizations have become progressively more reliant on digital infrastructure. Whether its consumer threat or state-sponsored cyber actors gain new opportunities to access sensitive data and disrupt key operations.
Governments, businesses and consumers recognise the seriousness of cyber threat, with cyber resilience becoming a sustained board level agenda item, and sometimes even considered a source of competitive advantage.
Global spend on cyber security technology platforms and services is at an all-time high and is predicted to continue in its exponential rise. The sustained intensity and constantly changing cyber landscape require an ecosystem of technology vendors who can respond rapidly and with increasing innovation.
Cybercrime is estimated to cost Canadian businesses $3 billion a year—or .17 per cent of GDP. In response, many forward-thinking companies are enhancing their cyber security measures by hiring Chief Information Security Officers (CISO) to effectively protect their organizations.
At Odgers Berndtson, we believe dedicated cyber-security teams are a necessity in today’s increasingly-connected business climate. As such, we’re committed to helping organizations find the high-level talent to meet the demands of these new positions—and move forward, safely, into the future.
